Isonicotinates, nicotinates and clofibrates of N-methyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl or 3-hydroxypropyl)--1,3,3-trimethylbicyclo [2.2.1]heptan-2-endo-amine with hypocholesterolemic and hypolipidemic activity.

Abstract/OtherAbstract:

The synthesis of isonicotinic, nicotinic and clofibric esters (III a, b, c) and (IV a, b, c) starting from N-methyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl or 3-hydroxypropyl)-1,3,3-trimethylbicyclo [2.2.1] heptan-2-endo-amine is described. In general these esters showed a normolipemic activity in rats; in particular, the isonicotinic ester (IV a) showed a hypocholesterolemic activity higher than that of clofibric acid.
